How we price a fish and chip van for your wedding
Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:
- How many people are eating
- How long we serve
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- Cod, haddock or both
The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- The address or venue name
- A picture of the space and the way in
- The date and time of the event
- Roughly how many people, including children
Still finalising the details? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll firm it up nearer the time. To start, send us your details through our quote form.

Litlington: your questions answered
Can you serve after a service at The Parish Church of St Michael the Archangel?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Is Litlington close to London?
About 50 miles from central London.
Can the van park on grass?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
How long will the queue be?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
What does the van need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
A chip van compared with other options
Late-night snacks from the venue can be small. Fish and chips fills people up. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.
Why us?
- Events in Litlington and across East Sussex
- Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side

Allergies and dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:

- Plan bins by the hatch
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who can’t eat from the van
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
After service, we pack up quietly and leave you to the party.
A little sign by the van tells guests what’s on.
Before you choose a spot
If a spot is not suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- Access wide and high enough for the van
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Litlington weddings: local tips
Litlington is about 3 miles north-east of Seaford, in East Sussex.

We serve all 289 towns and villages in East Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages. We serve events right across the region, from Litlington to Brighton (about 13 miles away).
Guests coming by rail will want to know that the nearest station is Berwick (Sussex) station, about 2.9 miles north. Within reach of Litlington are historic houses such as Alfriston Clergy House (0.5 miles north) and Charleston Farmhouse (3.6 miles north-west). Historic houses and estates often have rules on catering vans, so check early if that is your venue. With the South Downs National Park within about a mile, there are country venues, barns and gardens nearby. Check vehicle access with the venue. With the coast within about 4 miles, fish and chips suits a seaside-style wedding. We’ll think about shelter from sea breezes.

Step by step
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Each portion is battered and fried as it is ordered, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop. In Litlington, evening wedding food frequently coincides with dusk: about 9:15pm at midsummer, 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Getting ready for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

- Confirm the van is allowed on site

Who books wedding fish and chip van in Litlington?
People get hungry again by the evening, and a chip van gives guests something hot and generous. It’s a fun moment too.
Big or small, the van works the same way. Typical bookings include:
- Engagement celebrations
- Relaxed, informal receptions
- Day-after gatherings
- Anniversary celebrations
Combe Hill nearby makes a lovely backdrop for photos, and the countryside around Litlington suits an outdoor reception.
What to look for in a quote
- A clear list of what’s included
- The deposit and payment dates
- How late numbers can change
- The cancellation terms
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
